[ROM][unlocked][karnak] Lineage-14.1 [25 MAR 2020]

[Insane Assassin]

What? That's a lot of poor assumption on your part. I own 3 of the Fire 7's and 1 Fire 8. I've put custom roms on all of them and they are simply bad devices. Slow with not enough sd space; forget annoy playing simple games. Not even with the $35 or whatever they cost now is it worth modding. Maybe on the stock rom it's usable, but not on LOS.

Netflix? Forget it! If you want a remote, get a remote.

Errr, no. That's called internal (or permanent) storage. RAM is not expandable and notoriously constrained on Fire devices. ZRAM helps but is no substitute for the real thing.


No kidding; don't ya love it. Otherwise known as addicted to *****ing.


Complexity for the sake of complexity (or redirected geek blood flow) is its own special kind of stupid. Get a real remote.

so i´m supposed to understand that by sd space he means ram? also what do you not understand about smart remote? i need that for smart home appliances like light, heating, window blinds and also for a music server...thats nothing you can get a normal remote for boomer, unless you are inclined to spend 3 hundo on a logitech harmony. smh

Yeah, you are. As for the remote thing you'll figure it out eventually. Kinda like kids and cars.

People that actually care about the performance of their AV equipment are willing to spend money on it. I don't know which Logi remote costs $300 (Harmony Elite?), but why anyone would buy a remote without number keys is beyond me.

This is beyond the topic here, so I'll leave you to your absurdly slow, buggy, unreliable, overtemp "tablet".

I´m not a firehd ambassador, in fact my first post was, that the buggy LOS on the tablet renders it pretty useless.

As to your AV equipment remark...I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT A REMOTE FOR A RECEIVER, I NEED A REMOTE FOR A WHOLE SMART HOME:
AUTOMATIC BLINDS
CENTRAL HEATING
DOORBELL
LIGHTS
COFFEE MACHINE
GARAGE OPENER
and also a Media Server
Man really, are you a bit slow, rambling about your remote with number keys?

The fact that you need a tablet to control your coffee machine is why I'm done with this conversation.

Include the Samsung Exfat kernel driver?

It would be great if you can include the Samsung Exfat kernel driver. I tried it and it works well.
(The corresponding user land tool is https://github.com/exfatprogs/exfatprogs v1.0.4)

cd kernel/amazon/karnak
git clone -b old https://github.com/arter97/exfat-linux.git fs/exfat

vi fs/Kconfig
 menu "DOS/FAT/NT Filesystems"
  source "fs/fat/Kconfig"
 +source "fs/exfat/Kconfig"
  source "fs/ntfs/Kconfig"
  endmenu


vi fs/Makefile
  obj-$(CONFIG_FAT_FS)    += fat/
 +obj-$(CONFIG_EXFAT_FS)  += exfat/
  obj-$(CONFIG_BFS_FS)    += bfs/

vi arch/arm64/configs/karnak_defconfig
vi arch/arm64/configs/karnak_debug_defconfig
  CONFIG_VFAT_FS=y
 +CONFIG_EXFAT_FS=y
  CONFIG_TMPFS=y
  CONFIG_UBIFS_FS=y

Hello,
I am not sure someone still reading this thread, but I built AICP 12.1 (equivalent to nougat 7.1) for karnak. The security patch is quite old (December, 2017, the lastly maintained for AICP nougat), but it seems working pretty nice as far as I checked.

If you are interested in a new flavor for karnak, nougat ROM, you can test it. The link is:

Edit: I found wired headset does not work for this ROM. If you really need it, please do not use this ROM. I cannot fix it.

Edit1: You can use wired headset if you apply the patch mentioned below. I do not know how to include these patch in the source level.

How is this used and what are the benefits? Thank you.

have u tried the wired headset fix: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...4-1-25-mar-2020.3936242/page-28#post-80960141

it fixes settings in LOS so it may not work here but worth a try!

Thank you for your feedback. Well, I used karnak LOS14.1 device tree as is (some minor modification was applied by me though). I checked /system/etc/audio_device.xml, the modified xml file in the article you referred. It is actually the same with the file that is in mt8163-common/configs. The OP seems already applied the patch to his source, and I used it. If the same config file works for LOS14.1 but not for AICP 12.1, then I cannot do anything.

Edit: Yes, the patch you mentioned works. Thank you for the information. Unfortunately, I do not know how to include the patch file in the source before building the ROM.
For convenience, I rewrite the steps. In TWRP shell, you can apply patch with the following steps:

adb push patch.tar.gz /sdcard
adb shell
# inside adb shell:
mount /system
mount /vendor
cd /
tar xfz /sdcard/patch.tar.gz --strip 1
rm /vendor/etc/audio_effects.xml
reboot

Be sure to download patch.tar.gz before you apply these commands.

thanx 4 the continued reports n ur scripts! glad to hear that it works out! there is also a flashable zip for TWRP but was too lazy to look dat up.

if u dont mind me asking - wats the reason to build a custom AICP? does it have a lot more customization than LOS? L14 been rock solid on my karnak so i was wondering.

I know LOS14.1 is very stable. I just want to add another ROM for karnak. Nothing else. What is curious for me is that: LOS14.1 does not have wired headphone issue now, is this correct? I used current LOS14.1 device tree to build AICP. The resulting ROM still needs patch to solve wired headphone issue. This is very confusing for me.

wired headphone was a common issue across all custom ROMs for Fire HD tab. it was thought that the issue was very complicated...unless someone found out that it was not; as described in the post.

not sure if the fix has been incorporated as different ROMs are maintained by different developers. i lost track - i think it was posted here in Karnark but also cross-posted in Suez and Douglas. with a flashable zip, it is not a big deal - yeah, the flashable may be buried somewhere in the Suez thread if u wanna find it.

Hey guys I need some help I had lineage-14.1-20190717-UNOFFICIAL-karnak flashed to my fire hd8 2018 and all of a sudden it got stuck in a boot loop at the lineage logo.
So I downloaded lineage-14.1-20200324-UNOFFICIAL-karnak, wiped data, installed rom and rebooted.
The same boot loops happens, what can I do to fix it.
